Daming's Bizarre Story: Painted Skin

Fei Qingchen found a teahouse and copied down all the names of those people, and obviously asked him to add the place where Patriarch Long found them.

But when he got the list, he couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. These people live far away from each other, and most of them are hidden in deep mountains and old forests. It's really hard to imagine how Patriarch Long found them one by one.

Fei Qingchen also saw the obvious embarrassment, and drew a circle on the paper: "In fact, most of these people are followers, and this person is the leader."

Only then did Zhao Ran feel relieved, flicked the paper in his hand and said, "I'll give you news the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Fei Qingchen didn't seem very confident that Zhaoran could solve the problem in just a few days, but he still said: "This person only obeys Patriarch Long, but even Patriarch Long is more polite to him than others. Be more careful, if it doesn’t work, we’ll at most go for the other Protoss.”

Zhao Ran nodded and put away the paper, took a sip of tea and said, "What kind of person is Shen Fangji?"

Fei Qingchen seemed to be in deep thought, and finally said after a while: "Brother is gentle, smart and knowledgeable, treats people like a spring breeze, almost no one will dislike him when they see him." He lowered his head, raised his head again and said, "Actually, when I met Brother Rong, I felt a sense of intimacy. You two are somewhat similar. It's just, just..."

Zhao Ran said, "It's just that your senior brother must be much more handsome than me."

Fei Qingchen laughed awkwardly.

----

Zhao Ran returned to the bedroom, leaving Aning and Ying Ning talking outside, he knew that they must need time to get used to the news of the death of Patriarch Long.

He changed himself into clothes suitable for walking at night, took a bundle and rolled up a few clothes, stuffed the pearl Zhang Xiaobai gave him into a kit, and then stuffed it into his belt, and then blew out the lights , picked up the token and went in again.

"Which distinguished guest is coming to Luozi Peak, please show up!"

"Pfft!" Zhao Ran didn't expect that the time was still at the moment when he left, so he hurriedly ran away.

Fu Heng pursued him closely, and it was clear that if Jiu Ru hadn't been chased by Jiu Ru and ran across Luozi Peak once before, he would have caught up with him.

He turned a corner and saw the great hall, the sound of quarreling between Chong Er and Foot Yin was still going on inside, and it was obvious that he picked up a stone and shot it at the gate.

The two quickly rushed out of the hall, and said aggressively, "Who?"

"Who dares to break into my Luozi Peak at night!"

Zhao Ran had already taken the opportunity to sneak into the main hall, hiding behind the ancient lamp-burning Buddha.

Fu Heng arrived in a blink of an eye. Seeing the two standing outside the hall, he asked, "Have you seen any strangers running past here?"

Chong Er said: "Yes, I heard that person's footsteps."

Zuyin was not willing to show weakness, pointed to one side and said: "I saw that person running there!"

Fu Heng immediately chased after him, and he was obviously relieved when he heard his footsteps go away.

Outside, Zuyin and Chong'er were still arguing.

"Where did you see that man!" Chong Er said angrily.

"You can hear, why can't I see, my eyes are much better than yours!"

"It's not your eyes that are good, but your mouth is good, that's why the master named you Zuyin."

Zuyin was furious: "You fat ear!" The two scuffled together.

----

Zhao Ran shook his head with a smile. He swept his eyes and suddenly found a hand exposed in the curtain of the Buddha seat below. He was taken aback. There is a person lying down.

He had a knife stuck in his vest and appeared to be dead.

Zhao Ran raised the man's head, and saw that the man had handsome features, with the first six-character mantra "嗡" in blue-black Sanskrit tattooed between his brows, and his eyes widened immediately. The corpse was Shen Fangji, That is to say, Shen Fangji didn't disappear while going down the mountain to investigate the case at all, he didn't even die a year later, he died long before going down the mountain.

Shen Fangji is dead, who killed him?And hid him under the confession.

Zhao Ran saw that there seemed to be a line of blood writing on his hand, on which were written a few words that seemed to be false: found until now.

When Shen Fang died silently, the message he left had nothing to do with the murderer, nor the reason for his killing, but such a weird four words "to this day".

Zhao Ran had a feeling that these four words had a great connection with him, so he erased these four words, and then returned to Jiang's Mansion with the token.

His original plan was to use the token to travel back to six years ago, and then find the protoss who took the lead in making trouble, but what happened to Shen Fangji caught him off guard.

Zhao Ran returned to the house, took out the tokens, and took them apart again.

His half token can take human skin, Shen Fangji's half token can store time, he can survive in the world by constantly changing skins, and Shen Fangji can also pass this half token, Extend the life of "Shen Fangji" infinitely.

In other words, both of them may be resurrected.

Assuming that what Yang Xueshi said is correct, one of the four resurrected people died, then this resurrected person is likely to be Shen Fangji.

But Shen Fangji must know more than him, otherwise he would not be able to hand over half of his token to Patriarch Long for safekeeping.

Finding the present... Someone once said, "If you can't verify the present, how can you know that you are not in the past and the future."

The person who said this was Master Jinghui of Fayan Temple.

Zhao Ran looked at the token in his hand, and murmured, "I found it until now."

----

Zhao Ran suddenly lost interest in going back to Shen Fangji's time, and went out for a stroll early the next morning, and just after eating two big meat buns, someone patted his shoulder.

"What do you want to do?" Ying Ning shouted.

Zhao Ran waved his hand without looking back: "This is my friend."

The voice of footsteps came: "How do you know it's me?"

Zhaoran thought to himself that there is such a strong smell of makeup and powder, if not you, who else could have it, but he smiled and said: "This hand on my shoulder is so beautiful, besides the foot tone I know, who else?"

Zu Yin wore a mask on his head, and he was very satisfied when he heard this sentence: "So I said, as soon as I look at you, I fall in love with you."

Zhaoran "hehe" laughed a few times: "Are you looking for me to go to the princess mansion?"

"Yeah, I went back and made some preparations." Zuyin pulled Zhaoran to a secluded place, pulled away the bag she was wearing, and Zhaoran saw that it was filled with talisman paper, incense sticks, glutinous rice, and even some small porcelain pots.

"This is the blood of a big black dog. I searched several villages before I found the most vicious black dog and took its blood."

"Isn't it..." Zhao Ran said, "Can this be useful against the demon?"

Zuyin looked around, lifted the veil and whispered, "Who knows if it's a ghost or a demon."

He said and patted Zhao Ran's shoulder: "I'll wait for you at night."

Zhaoran hastened to say: "I'll find a friend, he's very good at dealing with ghosts."

The footnote looks beautiful, but the words are always rude: "If you are not afraid that your friend will be scared to pee, you can take it. But I have something to say first, I don't guarantee that he can go alive or come back alive."

"Don't worry." Zhao Ran chuckled twice, thinking that if only one survived, it would most likely be Jiu Ru.

----

As soon as it was dark, Zu Yin, who was hiding in the dark, saw Zhao Ran appearing near the Princess Mansion. There was indeed a thin young man standing beside him, wearing a mask below the nose, only the parts of the eyes were exposed .

"Let me introduce, this is my friend Jiuru." Zhao Ran pointed to Zuyin and said, "This is my friend Zuyin."

Zuyin pulled Zhaoran and whispered: "Is he really good? Doesn't he look big?"

"You're not that big." Zhao Ran said.

The sound of footsteps was relieved immediately, and he waved his hand, a little fat man came out from the lane house, he pointed at him reluctantly and said: "Chong Er, my senior brother."

Jiuru nodded shallowly, while Chong'er bit a piece of meat and said vaguely: "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Zuyin cleared his throat: "Our goal this time is to find out the situation of the Princess Mansion? The two of you will assist us in Jin Yiwei's affairs. After the matter is completed, I will definitely ask the court for credit for the two of you!"

"Are you sure that the strange direction in the Princess Mansion will appear tonight?" Zhao Ran asked.

"Of course, today is the night of the full moon!" Zuyin pointed to the sky and said triumphantly, "I have secretly visited many servants of the Princess Mansion, and I am sure that the cemetery will only appear on the night of the full moon."

Zhao Ran raised his head, looked at the cool moon in the sky, and thought that it was another full moon night.

"Let's go." Zuyin said.

A few people soon came to the door of the princess mansion. Judging from the scale of the mansion, it can be seen that Jiashan deserves the favor of the emperor.

Just like that, Zuyin climbed over the wall, and then went to pull the door bolt, and couldn't help saying: "Will it not be discovered by the guards of the Princess Mansion?"

Zuyin smiled and said: "Don't worry, the princess and the son-in-law have already moved to the outskirts of the city in fright. On the night of the full moon, no one dares to approach this gate. If they hear the sound of the door opening, don't say they are coming, I'm afraid they will scare you." You have to escape first."

The door opened, and the footsteps probed to take a look: "Alley, start again!"

Zhaoran helped him close the door, then opened it again, and said in a foot voice: "Why is it still an alley!"

"Could it be that the young master's evil spirit is too strong, scaring away all these demons and goblins." He wondered.

Zhaoran glanced at Jiuru and said with a smile: "It's really hard to say."

----

The two were talking and laughing, the door was opened again, and a gust of cold wind blew in. The four of them looked outside the door. At this moment, the outside of the door was no longer a deep and long alley, but a grave with desolate grass and many tombstones. field.

Zuyin murmured: "It's not a rumor, it's true. Going out from the princess mansion on the night of the full moon is really a cemetery!"

The strip of meat in Chong'er's hand also fell to the ground, Jiuru stepped over the threshold and walked towards the cemetery, and everyone hurriedly followed.

Zuyin sprinkled paper money while walking and said, "Do you think this is an illusion?"

"It's too realistic to say it's an illusion." Chong'er touched the grass on the ground and said.

"In the final analysis, why does the gate of the Princess Mansion connect with this cemetery?" Zhao Ran asked.

"You've done too many immoral things." Zuyin heheed a few times.

Jiuru's voice rang in Zhaoran's ear: "There is movement in the woods."

Zhao Ran immediately said: "There is movement in the woods."

Several people walked through the woods and found themselves standing in front of a house with black tiles and white walls.

"There are still people living beside this cemetery?" Zuyin whispered, "It can't be that the goblin has changed."

Chong Er moved his ears and said, "There seems to be no one inside."

"Turn in and have a look!" Zuyin said.

A few people climbed over the wall, and Zhaoran held up a lantern to take a look, and saw that there was a courtyard with two entrances, surrounded by walls, and the surface of the bluestone bricks, which looked like a well-to-do little rich family.

Jiu Ru opened a window randomly, only to see a whole row of blue bricks inside, and said with a voice: "This house is fake."

"Don't call, someone is coming." Chong Er said.

Several people hurriedly climbed up to the eaves, the house is a two-story building, the eaves are a bit high, Jiu Ru hooked Zhaoran's waist and went up to the eaves together, Zhaoran couldn't help feeling a little distracted.

----

The door was pushed open, and a man and a woman came in. The man was a middle-aged scholar with a handsome appearance, but he still looked a little gloomy under the full moon.

Zhao Ran's eyes widened, and Jiu Ru said, "This man is Li Mo from Rong'an Town."

Of course he recognized Li Mo!

Li Mo followed Mrs. Li closely, only to hear her say: "Tan Ning, don't dig the grave anymore."

Li Mo turned his head and said, "I don't want to dig the grave either! As long as you tell me where the rest are?"

Mrs. Li's expression was a little sour: "I don't believe me? I told you that I only found that golden mask."

Li Mo sneered: "It's you who said that as long as you present the golden mask, you don't need to be a night pearl anymore. I listened to you, but now those people ask me for the rest, but you say that you only picked up the golden mask. Wurong, in the final analysis, you don't want me to have a future at all, do you?"

"Ye Mingzhu is too detrimental. Those girls died so innocently. What's the use of building such a big tomb for them?"

Li Mo said: "I don't need your advice on how to do things!"

Mrs. Li was silent for a long time before saying: "Believe it or not, I really only picked up that mask."

"Then tell me, where did you find that mask!"

"I can't tell you this. It's for your own good if I don't tell you."

Li Mo sneered again: "It's you anyway!"

Mrs. Li took two steps forward and grabbed Li Mo's sleeve, saying: "Tan Ning, is the future really that important? The important thing is to make yourself completely unrecognizable because of it."

Li Mo seemed to be a little relieved, sighed and said: "You and I have been married for more than ten years, and it is not what I want to get into this situation, but now I have handed over the golden mask. The part of it, others will think that I have hidden it. Then we will really have to ruin our family."

Mrs. Li said: "At the end of the day, you don't believe that I only picked up the mask."

"General Taiyin's uniform is a set. If you say you only found a mask, who would believe it?"

Li Mo said coldly, "Wurong, I am asking you now, after today, I have no choice but to hand you over to them."

Mrs. Li said indifferently: "Who do you want to hand me over to?"

"I'm stubborn!" Li Mo didn't answer and left in a huff.

Mrs. Li looked back at the house, and sighed softly, like a deep breath in the middle of the night.

----

As soon as they left, Zuyin said, "Zhaoran, this, this is the one..."

Zhao Ran almost rushed forward and covered his mouth: "Be quiet, they haven't gone far." He said with a serious expression, "This person is Li Mo from Rong'an Town!"

The sound of footsteps was inexplicable, but his mouth was covered and he nodded.

Chong Er lost his voice: "Isn't Li Mo in Rong'an Town dead?"

Zhao Ran let go of his hand, and said in a footstep, "I remember Feng Liujing killed it."

"That's right." Chong'er said, "It's absolutely true, the master also said so."

Zuyin sneered: "Maybe Feng Liujing couldn't kill Li Mo at all, maybe it was just the opposite, he was beaten up, who knows?"

Jiuru glanced at him lightly, and Zuyin kindly explained to him: "This Liujing is the Buddha's son on the National Teacher Pagoda. Although he usually pretends to be upright and awe-inspiring, in fact hehe... ...This is a lie to laymen, and some inside stories are really not known to you outsiders."

Zhao Ran couldn't help but glanced at him, thinking in his heart, brother, please don't say a few words, you are digging a hole for yourself.

"If you don't believe me, ask Rong Xian!" Zu Yin pointed at Zhao Ran.

Zhao Ran was terrified: "I don't know anything!!"

Zuyin said: "You can see how cruel that Buddha is because he is afraid of being like this!"

Jiuru glanced at Zhaoran again, and Zhaoran hurriedly asked dryly, "Then is this Li Mo?"

Chong'er pulled out a piece of meat and said, "According to my analysis, it's not like Li Mo has no signs of turning into a demon at all."

Zuyin said: "This madman is still awake, maybe this letter of Liujing..."

Zhao Ran quickly interrupted him: "It seems that this house is actually a tomb."

As expected, Zuyin shifted his gaze and said, "That's right, it seems that this is the grave of the inexplicably missing concubines from the Princess Mansion to the Li Mansion. The purpose of building the tomb into a house is to confuse others' sight."

"Impossible." Zhao Ran said in his heart, Li Mo handed over the delivery together with people and pearls, why did he repair the graves for those concubines whose bones did not survive.

There must be something inside that Mrs. Li doesn't even know.
